As a result of its quarterly review, FTSE Russell – part of LSE Group (LSEG) – has moved five stocks into the FTSE 250 mid-cap index as of this month:
Joiners
GB Group (GBG)
Pan African Resources (PAF)
Princes Group (PRN)
Shawbrook Group (SHAW)
WPP (WPP)
For four out of five it means promotion, while for WPP it means demotion from the FTSE 100 where BRITISH LAND (BLND) is promoted in its place.
Leavers
European Opportunities Trust (EOT)
Foresight Solar Fund (FSF)
Paypoint (PAY)
Pinewood Technology Group (PINE)

Changes to the indices matter, as there are billions of pounds invested in index trackers and these instruments will need to buy the joiners and sell the leavers.
